Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

Residents held their own meeting today at The Falcon, very well attended by 60 or so from mainly the Snoots Road area. Chaired by Mr Tony Ellingford who kept the momentum moving, I attended as an invited guest.
Residents raised the ongoing concerns of noise and smell allegedly coming from the site. The historic non-conforming waste issues and the impending Johnsons Aggregates Planning Application.
The group formed a sub-committee and asked for support to print and deliver a pamphlet informing a wider area of their concerns.

The Whittlesey Phoenix Youth Provision Group are making excellent progress with support from Cambs CC and Volunteers.
Get in contact if you or your children want to get involved.

I have lost count on the number of times, Whittlesey Town Council Planning Committee, have made decisions on planning grounds (as consultees) only for Fenland District Council Planning Committee to overturn what we local Councillors have decided.
Today our FDC (Whittlesey) Councillors on the committee declared their interests and took no part in debate or voting which is the correct process.
On one application (The Conservative Club), the rest of the Committee had their hands tied in that there have been similar applications to build in Car Parks, that said, no mention what-so-ever that WTC had recommended refusal.
No mention of the safety of the new residents or public sharing the access with vehicles and no weight to the protected Mud Wall.
The 2nd application Pings Yard, took all of 10 minutes a basic debate – again WTC had recommended refusal.
Makes the public wonder why we even bother.
